Slipping into bananas

This turned a smile on my face. I had never heard of shoe designer Kobi Levi nor of the shoe and leather museum in Waalwijk before but now that I have, I just have to share.

The Tel Aviv based shoe designer is having an exhibition in the Dutch museum from June 2 till August 25 2013.

Most of the designs are obvious, sometimes you have to look again. Shoes with blond pony tails, being birds or pouring coffee, or this yellow slipper are some examples of his work.

If Waalwijk is not within reach, Levi has a website where you can purchase (/ start saving for) a pair of his shoes. Watch the photos of the making of too. A lot more of his work is on his blog.
